What a card that Trump fellow is! I heard this morning that he was being talked about as a possible Republican candidate for the next US presidential election.
Apparently, he's not happy with the current approach to Libya. If it was up to him, having decided to intervene, the Americans would just go in there and take the oil, generously leaving plenty for the Libyans to be able drive their cars. "You know, in the old days when you have a war and you win, that nation's yours," he said. Funnily enough, that sounds rather like colonialism, which I thought was something America at least pretended to disapprove of.
No doubt it's all just a publicity stunt but then again, he could make it a much cleaner situation in Libya by simply insisting that Colonel Gaddafi appear on a new "Presidential Apprentice" show and telling him "You're fired". He'll probably do that after he's invited Barack Obama onto the show to tell him the same thing.
One always has such high hopes when sitting down to write something, but in truth, all that springs to mind are the small oddities one encounters...Then again, maybe I've just become a grumpy middle-aged man!
